Dan, - It could be that you encountered (or "discovered") a kernel BUG with the locking mechansim of bridge devices.
- What I would suggest is the following: - First, If you can give more details (kernel version / disto) it would help. - Second, if you can post this mailing list the scripts you are running (for adding/deleting the tun device) and describe the environment (how you exactly start and configure the tun devices, etc). that cause this crash it will really help. I, for one , will happily try to test it on two Linux machines to see if it crash , and I believe that there will be others.
